Enum VerificationMethod 

pub enum VerificationMethod {
    DidKey(Did),
    DidUrl(Did),
}

A verification method most typically is a public key (via did:key), or a Did Url that links to a verification method in a different Did Document.

Variants

DidKey(Did)

A did:key. This does not include the fragment suffix, to save space.

DidUrl(Did)

A reference to a verification method in a remote Did Document. Any method other than did:key can be used.

DidUrls allow the use of verification methods that are controlled by third parties or with alternative did methods such as did:web. By referencing external Dids, users can use more convenient third party services while retaining their ability for credible exit.
